Linguine With Scallops and Shrimp in Thai Green Curry Sauce
5.0(9)
A delicious Thai dish from Gourmet, December 2000. The sauce is a little thin so I like to thicken the sauce at the end of preparation with a cornstarch/water mixture.
03Pat scallops and shrimp dry separately and season with salt.
04Heat remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in same skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook scallops until browned, 2 to 3 minutes on each side (scallops will be almost cooked through).
05Transfer scallops to a bowl with slotted spoon and sauté shrimp in same skillet, stirring occasionally, until almost cooked through, about 3 minutes.
06Add shrimp to scallops.
07Add coconut milk, curry paste, broth, brown sugar, fish sauce, and lime juice to skillet, then simmer, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes.
08Meanwhile, cook linguine in a 6- to 8-quart pot of boiling salted water until al dente, then drain in a colander.
09Stir scallops and shrimp with any liquid in bowl into sauce in skillet and heat to boiling.
10Reduce heat and simmer until scallops and shrimp are just cooked through, about 2 minutes.
11Transfer seafood to a clean bowl with slotted spoon and add linguine and cilantro to sauce in skillet, tossing to coat.
12Divide pasta and sauce among 4 bowls.
13Top with seafood and sprinkle with scallion greens and chile mixture.
